Hi there, today our tutorial is the 300 movie effect and i think it's one of the best movie effect it make everything looks EPIC so this is our final result :

Before we start , i like to tell that not every photo is valid for this tutorial ,you have to chose a raw photo and that means a photo that didn't photoshoped or modified like mine that i started with :

2- now press Ctrl+J to duplicate Layer1 like this:

3- go to:

4-and then set the radius to 1.5 (if it was big photo you put a bigger radius )

5-Now press (Ctrl+Shift+Alt+E) in the same time to merge all the previous layers into new one:

6-select these colors:

7-Go to Filter>Distort>Diffuse Glow and the follow this pic :

8-in the previous step set the Glow Amount depending on your image saturation so set a good amout of a glow to give the image the goldy effect like this

9-Go to Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur and then set the radius to 1.2 (if you have a medium size image)

10-set the blend mode of Layer2 to Overlay :

11- Now(again) press (Ctrl+Shift+Alt+E) in the same time to merge all the previous layers into new one:
